About Auto Harmonize notes and
tones
The notes you play on the keyboard are called melody
notes, while the notes added to the melody by Auto
Harmonize is called the harmonize notes. Auto Harmonize
normally uses the tone you selected for the melody notes as
the tone for the harmonize notes, but you can use the Mixer
(page E-39) to specify a different tone for the harmonize notes.
The harmonize note tone is assigned to Mixer Channel 5, so
change Channel 5 to the tone you want to use for the
harmonize notes.
In addition to the tone, you can also use the Mixer to change
a number of other parameters, such as volume balance. See
Using the Parameter Edit Mode on page E-40 for details
on these procedures.
NOTE
The default harmonize note tone when you first turn on
Auto Harmonize is the same tone as the melody note
tone.
Changing the melody tone setting automatically changes
the harmonize note tone to the same setting.
